Why should all events have non-zero probability? So that you don't divide by zero when applying Bayes theorem? Why would you condition on a zero probability event to start with? I find all the arguments between bayesianism/frequentist quite boring. If you want to use a prior go ahead, if not, good for you. Whatever.
PD: I actually love SMBC
